A bit of a belated announcement for those who don’t already know … I moved to a new job!! On August 4, I started working at LeapFrog Enterprises in Emeryville. So for the first time in my 10-year career since law school, I am not crossing a bridge or going through a tunnel as part of my commute! It’s a great company (listed on the NYSE under LF) that makes excellent learning toys, platforms and content, and it’s a short drive from our house. My practice is more focused (and more interesting to me); I’m their securities and corporate law attorney. As with any corporate practice for a public company, I am also handling various equity benefits matters, board and stockholder governance, and anything else that affects or requires disclosure or corporate actions. I also have my hand in international commercial transactions and some non-securities regulatory work. This is a bit of a return to the part of my practice at Fenwick & West that I enjoyed most, and I’m getting to do it in-house! And perhaps most importantly my colleagues are excellent lawyers and fun people, many of whom graduated at some point in their careers from UCB (or Boalt), and I’m reporting directly to the GC and SVP. It really is exactly what I was looking for in-house, so I’m very happy with the whole thing.
